They Return at Evening


Read by Ben Tucker

(3.9 stars; 8 reviews)

The Author of The Ghost Stories of an Antiquary in the preface to one of his books expressed his lively distaste for benevolent ghosts, and ghosts with nice minds. The author profoundly agrees with this sentiment of the master, and, furthermore, he abominates the 'natural' explanation, a poisonous anti-climax. So this much can be said for his tales, that those Who Return therein are animated by undiluted malevolence, and no iconoclastic materialist has been allowed to cast a doubt on their credentials as genuine apparitions. (Summary from Inside Front Dust Cover of 1928 First Edition) (5 hr 45 min)

A mix of tales , each of which held my interest to the end . Ably read, as always, by Ben. One star deducted because some endings were obvious.
